## Resource

Thomas Bryant’s return to Cleveland on a $3.52M one-year deal signals a strategic move to bolster spacing and depth. A sharp-shooting big man, he averaged 6.2 points and 3.4 rebounds last season while shooting 50.6% from the field and 35.9% from deep — stats that could unlock offensive opportunities. With Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley already entrenched at center, Bryant’s role will likely be as a backup power forward or center in rotation, especially with Dean Wade gone. The Cavs may experiment by shifting Mobley to power forward, freeing up minutes for Bryant and improving spacing while keeping Mobley fresher. Though not elite defensively, Bryant’s efficiency as a roll man and transition threat can complement Mobley’s game. His ability to handle more consistent minutes will determine his impact — if he delivers, Cleveland could find creative ways to maximize his value early in the season.
